******** Welcome to LANCE! A Shareware game by GE-Warez software. ********
LANCE is a game inspired by the original Atari Joust of the early 1980's with
a few new twists thrown in. The object of the game is to unseat the enemy riders
by landing on them from a superior position and then collecting the egg they turn
into. If you don't get the egg in time it will again turn into an enemy rider.
You will face Bounder,Hunter, and Slayer which vary in their speed and "intelligence"
with Bounder being the easiest and Slayer being down right Nasty. There are a
couple of other nasties but I will let them introduce themselves when you play
the game {Remember the Lava Troll?}
Unlike the original game when you collect an egg you may be given a special
ability which will last for a short while depending upon the current level. The
possible abilities are:
Extra Life --> You Get another Chance {Max 6}
Invinceability --> You are indestructable
Permeate --> You go thru platforms
Blindness --> Enemy riders can't see you
DoubleScore --> Everything is scored twice
There are other little things but you must play to find them. Speaking of playing
the controls are easy just press the fire button to flap your wings to go up.
To go down don't flap your wings! To move left or right push the joystick in the
direction and flap. It doesn't help to push the stick Up or Down!
This game was programmed in AmosPro in about 2 months time. Before Amos I could
have never done a game of this quality. Hopefully Europress will continue to
develope and support AmosPro through all this termoil with Commodore.
LANCE was programmed on an Amiga 1200 with a 33mhz accellerator and 4megs of ram.
I hand drew all the graphics using Deluxe Paint IV and sampled all the sounds using
GVP's Digital Sound Studio. The only thing I won't take credit for is the Music
which I got from a Mod disk so if the author of that excellent song sees this
please contact me and Thank You.
L A N C E I S S H A R E W A R E so all I ask is that if you play and enjoy
the game please send me a fair donation. I know you'll enjoy the game so thank
you in advance.
Bug reports, comments, and suggestions are encouraged and welcome!!
